MY REVIEW

As we meet Ava and Jimmy in the midst of their lively dialogue, I quickly become involved, but that’s because I know just enough about them from a couple of later books I read, and now I’ll be getting the details from the horses mouth.

Wow, Amanda Siegrist led me straight into the danger and action. I was way to comfortable, wondering why are we here, on a call, before the party? I got the answer I was looking for from the beginning, what happened to make Zane hate Ava so much.

Zane loved the farm and expected Jimmy and Austin to love it to. Jimmy had always dreamed about becoming a cop and living in New York City. That is how he met Ava, the head of the crime scene investigators. They became fast friends, family.

Zane is the ‘dad’ brother, feeling responsible for taking care of his brothers, even though they are grown men. Of course, they don’t discuss their feelings. Austin is the funny one, the ladies man.

People handle grief in their own way and Ava was swept away from New York to the farm…and Zane. Zane’s bark is worse than his bite. The first night had me in tears. I had to take a break to let my eyes clear.

Way to go Amanda. You have written a powerful, realistic, romance novel that settles around grief, loss, and healing. The romance may be predictable, familiar, but the road to healing is filled with tears, guilt, forgiveness, love…I am drawn into their world of loss and pain. It’s so real, it reads like real life. Their struggle is my struggle and I do look forward to us finding out way through the grief to the Happy Ever After Amanda Siegrist delivers.

Well, I was getting all mellowed out….lazily smiling…the Fourth of July parade…and BAM, in my face. I expected a meet up, but with someone else…and I love it!

MMM…a happy ever after that will take me directly into Book II, Trust In Love.

ABOUT AMANDA SIEGRIST

Amanda Siegrist

Love! Gimme some love and heaps of romance. I have a sappy heart that just loves two people meeting, going through the cycles of a relationship, and ultimately, falling in love. Give me a good book like that and I’m a happy camper:)

I write contemporary and romantic suspense, but I am partial to suspense. I just love a good mystery.

Besides writing, I love baking, crafts, and baseball…oh, and meeting new people. *smiles*
